We’re extremely grateful to all our Angels for their generous and vital support. Thank you all, without your support we could not deliver our programme of performances and projects.
We’d be thrilled if you can help us keep world-class choral singing alive and thriving in the Midlands. Perhaps you could join our wonderful Host of Angels, or introduce us to new prospective Angels.
Thank you!
